I guess someone worships Demeter way too much.

 

[kyliethicc]

Downloading it right now on PS4 Pro.

Its 80 GB.

 

[jonnyp]

If the first game bored me to tears, will this one change my mind?

How many times have you whined about this now? We get it warrior. You can stop your low effort trolling and whining.

 

[Ammogeddon]

Just watched a video of

flying mounts

Looks awesome.

 

[Boneless]

Hard pass.

 

[Banjo64]

Hard pass.

Real screen shot?

You are warned, this is the stuff of nightmares:



Overall, looks a lot denser for content than the first one, but less polished.

 

[GymWolf]

About the flamboyant singer guy, we had this guy dressed like this in the most important italian music contest of the year, clearly guerrilla likes shitty italian music

Spoiler

And before you ask, no, this is not even his final form.

Texture pop-in shouldnt even be happening on the PS5. Didnt they build this on the PS5 SDK?

No idea why the game is so buggy either. This is Sony's premiere franchise. Why they are treating this like Days Gone is beyond me. Delay it another couple of months. I dont want to play a game where graphics are its biggest selling point and it is loading entire game world objects in front me.

They delayed TLOU2 like four times in five months. Why not Horizon?

 

[Banjo64]

True.

[zcaa0g]

I love it when some no name gaming website give a very low score compared to most other outlets just to try to get attention to their no name gaming website. It doesn't work, fool.

Is the video pre or post day 1 patch?That could explain a lot based on the DF video.

 

[Hendrick's]

What 1st party Playstation games did you like last generation?

Bloodborne was my fav last gen.

 

[SlimySnake]

Both. He said some issues were resolved by the day one patch but most remain. Kinda funny Oscar said the same thing.

 

[GymWolf]

Hard pass.

This is even better than giant head child aloy.

 

[Oddvintagechap]

Dude, who cares. The person likes Xbox more. So what. There are going to be reviewers out there who like PlayStation more. Does their bias bother you?

Someone's review score doesn't change the game you're getting.

This doesnt make sense. Thats a horrible reviewer.

Because Cuphead was exclusive to Xbox it's not a 10?
Because Ghost of Tsushima runs on a Playstation I should grade it highly? (game is a 7.5)

In an industry where half the games is about killing humans...this is where you draw the line?

yes, I believe in equality. Nipples should be out man or woman.

I like how people go why do they shove these flamboyant males in my games! First god, now game developers!!

 

[NoLootBoxDev]

Thank you, everyone. I know you all wanted the NoLootingBox review without playing the game, so here it is:

If you liked the first one, most likely you will enjoy this one.

Play the F game and never pay attention to reviews that give a score or trolls who call themselves journalists but are just fanboys who only want clicks on their sites.

 

[Dr Bass]

I'm not saying it's a consistent or a "good" reviewer. I'm saying "it happens" and it does so across all of the platforms so why spend energy getting upset? You literally can't control anything about it, except your response. So better off just shrugging and letting it go instead of whining.

damn.

Spoiler: Video

 

[Swift_Star]

The hyperbolic comments are back, I see.

 

[Hydroxy]

Based on my experience with the first game, this seems like a solid 7/10 game. Definitely some improvements made but not enough to make it a much more than HZD 2.0. Hopefully the story is better and more engaging this time around.

 

[saintjules]

Glad to hear the side content aren't chores and each feels like it's own thing.

 

[azertydu91]

Let's hope it won't be that bothering by the release date.

 

[Balducci30]

None of the negatives seem like things that would actually bother me - I don't even need a game to be bug free. Horizon 1 was one of the best games of the last gen - if they topped that I'm there. Seems to be the case - fuckin lol at that 6.5 tho

 

[Atrus]

Looks like the game hit it out of the park based on reviews though the audio and graphical bugs are a disappointment. Hopefully they get patched quickly.

Now they have an arena I hope they can drop in some special battle DLCs over time. Fight 3 Epsilon Cauldron Fireclaws released 30 seconds after each other! Fight a Thunderjaw and Tremor Tusk with 3 control towers healing them! Fight a Demonic Rollerback and Demonic Rockbreaker all at once.

The pants destroying fights were always the best.

 

[Goalus]

9.5 to an unfinished game that's still not entirely released...but then gives this a 6.5 and says it lacks the polish he's used with most Sony 1st party games

Halo got criticised for having no coop multiplayer mode, no split-screen coop in particular. For some reason Sony games are never criticised for having no coop multiplayer mode.

Sony never promised split-screen coop. 343 did. That's why they were criticized. Sony has typically focused on single player games. There is nothing wrong with that.

Have you ever played Halo before Infinite?

 

[noise36]

Good reviews! 89 seems to be at the upper end of what I thought it would get, its probably a 85 game with +4 Sony exclusive polish.

Cant wait to play it on ps5!

i feel like if they don't get another patch out in the next couple of days we are going to see some insane videos come launch day. This is going to be assassins creed levels of crazy videos when people start capturing them.

it's like every review mentions the pop in and strange bugs, I'm quite surprised John lineman didn't highlight them or discuss them more. if every reviewer is having these issues it's obviously a widespread issue and not something I would expect from a First party Sony title.

Halo is all about spilt screen coop.
Besides… infinite is like 5 hours of medium sized levels and 5 hours of corridors. And every boss is monke atrioxxx

I thought John said they got the day one patch that basically resolved these issues? Maybe I misread his review.

[Danjin44]

So will the franchise get shelved after this one?

They should take the opportunity to make another Dark Cloud instead

??? Sometimes you just make random posts, how Dark Cloud has to do with Guerrilla Games? That game was made by Level-5.

 

[GHG]

Couple more reviews:





Fextralife wasn't so hot on the story and characters (which is a shame because he's well seasoned in RPG storytelling) but was fond of everything else.

 

[SlimeGooGoo]

.

 

[Danjin44]

It's not, that's the point.

Level-5 should have priority, not Guerrilla.

Current Sony is chasing money, this is why they focusing on western games and completely stopped making any first party Japanese games.

 

[eastcoastkody]

i dont want spoilers. dont want to read/watch reviews.

All i care to know is, did they improve the crappy exploration, traversal, boring NPCS and melee combat of the first game? Because everything else about the original was good except those things.

 

[The_Mike]

GOW got 8 while Forza got 10

Yeah sure

Well, if you were into racing games then you'd know why

 

[Hawking Radiation]

Just watched a video of

Looks awesome.

Please, for the love of god, share the fucking link lol

fuckit, I found it

 

[Danjin44]

You can't really compare them, Forza is reviewed and being compared to other racing games, instead to action game or RPG.

[Danjin44]

Chasing money can only work for so long. They were lucky past gen thanks to the failures of Nintendo and Xbox.

This gen they really should have diversified their games, not sacrificed one thing for the other.

Look I would LOOOVE Sony to give me first party JRPG like Nintendo but with current Sony I just don't see that happening.

 

[Arachnid]

I hope we can have dogfights with other flying machines.

 

[Warnen]

couldn't have picked a worse time to come out for me, gonna be like spider man and I get to it 4 months after it comes out. Plus side the minor bugs will get fixed by then.

When I get tired of Witch Queen it will be waiting for me.

 

[Batiman]
